ore Me by Brandilyn Collins a Christian suspense writer is one of my favorite books and as you read more you will find out why!"City girl Jessie, orphaned at sixteen, struggles to adjust to life with her barely known aunt and uncle in the tiny town of Bradleyville, Kentucky. Eight years later (1968), she plans on leaving-to follow in her revered mother's footsteps of serving the homeless. But the peaceful town she's come to love is about to be tragically shattered. Threats of a labor strike rumble through the streets, and Jessie's new love and her uncle are swept into the maelstrom. Caught between tries to deny that Bradleyville is rolling toward violence and destruction."
This story is about trusting God to lead the way, and following His plans for you not your own. Jeremiah 29:11 says this "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Jessie was so set on doing what she wanted to do, even when tragedy strikes the town and she falls in love, that she didn't listen to the people around her and most important God.
This book is good for anyone who is mature enough to understand the meaning behind it. I had to read twice before I understood what it means. :) This book reminds me how important it is to let God lead my life and not get caught up in the plans I have for my life, but let God lead me where I am suppose to be.
Thank you for reading this is my first book review so comment and tell me what you think and what I could do better!!
